Another Statistical Paradox
We show that a single binomial observation carries absolutely no evidential value for discriminating the null hypothesis θ = 1/2 from a broad class of alternative hypotheses that allow θ to be between 0 and 1. In contrast, interval estimation methods suggest that a single binomial observation does provide some evidence against the null hypothesis. The resolution of this paradox requires the ins...

In a number of important diseases, the clinical course is defined principally by the host response, more so than by the initiating environmental insult. Clinicians rely on identification of this host response for diagnosis and may select those responses as targets for therapeutic intervention. Atherosclerosis is one such disease. The clinical course was once felt to result from progressive accu...
متن کاملOn Scrambling, Another Perspective
We explore the possibility of accounting for scrambling patterns in German using multidimensional grammars. The primary desirable characteristic of this approach is that it employs elementary structures with a single uniform component and combining operations which operate at a single point in the derived structure. As a result, we obtain an analysis that is much closer in spirit to ordinary TA...
متن کاملAnother Perspective on Vocabulary Richness
This article examines the usefulness of vocabulary richness for authorship attribution and tests the assumption that appropriate measures of vocabulary richness can capture an author’s distinctive style or identity. After briefly discussing perceived and actual vocabulary richness, I show that doubling and combining texts affects some measures in computationally predictable but conceptually sur...

Exposure to cigarette smoke is an established risk factor for coronary heart disease in both Western and Asian countries. The multivariate relative risk of coronary heart disease mortality for current smokers was 1.8-3.7 compared to nonsmokers. Poor prognosis in smokers results from: 1) induction of hypercoagulability due to increased platelet activation, dyslipidemia, and endothelial dysfuncti...
